Ivica Šerfezi

Ivica Šerfezi was a Croatian pop singer born on December 1, 1935, in Zagreb. He was active across several decades of the Yugoslav and later Croatian music scene and died on May 29, 2004. Working primarily in the pop and schlager traditions common to the region, he was part of a generation of Yugoslav entertainers who built careers through radio appearances, festival performances, and domestic record releases.

Collectors seeking records from the former Yugoslav market look to artists like Šerfezi as representative examples of mid-twentieth century domestic pop production, with releases typically appearing on labels such as Jugoton, which served as the principal outlet for popular music in Yugoslavia. His recordings reflect the production styles and repertoire choices characteristic of Croatian and broader Yugoslav popular music from his active period.
